Ham Radio Resources+ HURRICANE KATRINA HF RESPONSE AND RECOVERY FREQUENCIES The following frequencies and links are the courtesy of John Mayger, W4DJ. As far as net activity is concerned, I've been listening primarily to the Gulf Coast ARES Net on 7285 kHz, and the SATERN Net on 14.265 MHz, although I'm sure there are many other active nets. Good propagation to the Florida east coast from those two nets have allowed me to monitor their excellent, professional work. - K1CE 2802.4 USB American Red Cross Disaster 3171.4 USB American Red Cross Disaster 5136.4 USB American Red Cross Disaster 5141.4 USB American Red Cross Disaster 5211.0 USB FEMA 5236.0 USB SHARES Coordination Network 6859.5 USB American Red Cross Disaster 7507.0 USB USN/USCG hurricane net 7550.5 USB American Red Cross Disaster (primary) 7698.5 USB American Red Cross Disaster 9380.0 USB USN/USCG hurricane net 10493.0 USB FEMA 14396.5 USB SHARES Coordination Network AMATEUR HF GULF COAST HURRICANE NETS 3845.0 LSB Gulf Coast West Hurricane 3862.5 LSB Mississippi Section Traffic 3873.0 LSB Central Gulf Coast Hurricane 3873.0 LSB Louisiana ARES Emergency (night) 3873.0 LSB Texas ARES Emergency (night) 3873.0 LSB Mississippi ARES Emergency 3910.0 LSB Mississippi ARES 3910.0 LSB Louisiana Traffic 3923.0 LSB Mississippi ARES 3925.0 LSB Central Gulf Coast Hurricane 3925.0 LSB Louisiana Emergency (altn) 3935.0 LSB Central Gulf Coast Hurricane 3935.0 LSB Louisiana ARES (health and welfare) 3935.0 LSB Texas ARES (health and welfare) 3935.0 LSB Mississippi ARES (health and welfare) 3935.0 LSB Alabama Emergency 3940.0 LSB Southern Florida Emergency 3950.0 LSB Northern Florida Emergency 3955.0 LSB South Texas Emergency 3965.0 LSB Alabama Emergency (altn) 3967.0 LSB Gulf Coast (outgoing traffic) 3975.0 LSB Texas RACES 3993.5 LSB Gulf Coast (health & welfare) 3995.0 LSB Gulf Coast Wx 7225.0 LSB Central Gulf Coast Hurricane 7235.0 LSB Louisiana Emergency 7235.0 LSB Central Gulf Coast Hurricane 7235.0 LSB Louisiana Emergency 7240.0 LSB American Red Cross US Gulf Coast Disaster 7240.0 LSB Texas Emergency 7243.0 LSB Alabama Emergency 7245.0 LSB Southern Louisiana 7248.0 LSB Texas RACES 7250.0 LSB Texas Emergency 7260.0 LSB Gulf Coast West Hurricane 7264.0 LSB Gulf Coast (health and welfare) 7265.0 LSB Salvation Army Team Emergency Radio (SATERN) (altn) 7273.0 LSB Texas ARES (altn) 7280.0 LSB NTS Region 5 7280.0 LSB Louisiana Emergency (altn) 7283.0 LSB Gulf Coast (outgoing only) 7285.0 LSB West Gulf ARES Emergency (day) 7285.0 LSB Louisiana ARES Emergency (day) 7285.0 LSB Mississippi ARES Emergency 7285.0 LSB Texas ARES Emergency (day) 7290.0 LSB Central Gulf Coast Hurricane 7290.0 LSB Gulf Coast Weather 7290.0 LSB Texas ARES (health and welfare) 7290.0 LSB Louisiana ARES (health and welfare) (day) 7290.0 LSB Texas ARES (health and welfare) 7290.0 LSB Mississippi ARES (health and welfare) 14265.0 USB Salvation Army Team Emergency Radio (SATERN) 14300.0 USB Intercontinental Traffic 14300.0 USB Maritime Mobile Service 14303.0 USB International Assistance and Traffic 14313.0 USB Intercontinental Traffic (altn) 14313.0 USB Maritime Mobile Service (altn) 14316.0 USB Health and Welfare 14320.0 USB Health and Welfare 14325.0 USB Hurricane Watch (Amateur-to-National Hurricane Center) 14340.0 USB Louisiana (1900) The following info received but not vetted + RESOURCE LINKS CAUTION: The links presented below are listed as possible resources for ARES deployment teams.
